ipdb 0.6

IPython-enabled pdb

IPython pdb

Use

from ipdb import set_trace; set_trace()

or

from ipdb import pm; pm()

You then get all IPython features (tab completion, syntax highlighting, better tracebacks, better introspection) right in pdb.

If you install ipdb with a tool which supports setuptools entry points, an ipdb script is made for you. You can use it to debug your scripts like

$ bin/ipdb mymodule.py

With Python 2.7 only, you can also use

$ python -m ipdb mymodule.py

PDBDebugMode support

ipdb support is integrated in Zope 2 Products.PDBDebugMode. If ipdb is available, it is used in place of pdb.

Development

ipdb source code and tracker are at https://github.com/gotcha/ipdb.
